Flickr user and EB member Sparkytron constructed this awesome Bionicle pirate. This is something we don't see often in the Pirates forum or in the Bionicle realm for that matter. Very creative part usage, and building techniques almost make this model come alive. This truly is the best Bionicle MOC ever!

The amazing angles on this little shack will get you wondering "How". Throughout the build, Legonardo has used parts in wonderful unintended ways. There are quite a few very nice close up detail photos in the post. All the strange angles in the build really make for a lively scene even though it has no live minifigures roaming.

Flickr user K.kreations made this awesome MOC for the 2014 MocAthalon, Pirates' Haven category. The rock work is just stunning! He has also incorporated great new part usage. Definitely one of the best pirate MOCs I have seen in a little while!

Flickr user Stijn Oom created this wonderful entry in the 2014 MocAthlon: Pirates' Haven category. It features excellent snot work on the rocks, a neat color scheme rarely seen in pirate creations, as well as many other awesome details.

Ummester has shared with us his LDD build galleon and what a beauty she is! With a traditional brown overall look, this ship looks very realistic. To add some flare the ship has been lined with dark blue, gold, and red colors, resembling an Ozzie football team and ultimately leading to this 22 gun galleon being called Gilded Crow. Currently in the brick ordering stage, lets hope Ummester can recreate this master piece in the flesh!

Working together over email, Yatkuu and 6Kyubi6 have created two sets that fit together perfectly in style and function. The wrecked ship has been masterfully changed into a place for the remaining crew to live on Shark Reef's rocky outcroppings. The creations have a lot of great details from the pirates re-purposing parts of the ship, very much worth checking out the close up photos.

The contest entries keep rolling in, and here is another wonderful entry by Captain Nemo and MstrOfPppts. They have incorporated several great play features and details. Most interesting is their unconventional way of connecting the modules with technic pins!

Pirate reviewer extraordinaire and former crew member Boomchil has finished his first MOC, and it's a true work of art! He recreated the classic LEGO pirate Captain Redbeard minifigure in large scale. Perfect proportions and excellent attention to detail make this a superb creation.

Flickr user Anonymous Bricks has uploaded this creative micro build using only 11 pieces! Some parts are cleverly used, such as the Bionicle head and the plastic waterfall sheet from the Fountain of Youth set. This small display goes to show that you don't always need to build a huge creation to showcase creativity.

MassEditor has shared with us his first ship using a brick-built hull and custom rigging. It's appropriately named the HMS Bulldog after it's stubby nature and fierce armaments. It's even armed with a piercing battering ram! Even the deck is armed with clever weaponry and great detail.
